Loneliness: Part 3, Easing the Way
Manage episode 304272445 series 2986242
Last week, Kevin and Niseema talked about a number of statistics about loneliness in America and worldwide. An epidemic of loneliness is confirmed by all social psychology studies. 18 of our listeners took the UCLA Loneliness Questionnaire that was posted on our website (www.tffpp.org), and 14 found out that they are very lonely, 4 were average and none were not lonely.
This week, Kevin and Niseema talk about ways to recognize and cultivate “Companionship” and “Belonging,” the two themes of the Loneliness Scale questions. Did your parents have companions or felt a sense of belonging? If not, you may have a high tolerance for isolation and loneliness yourself. This is not something to judge yourself for. Loneliness can boil down to a lack of companionship and/or a lack of belonging.
Kevin and Niseema also talk about the acronym EASE standing for Extend Yourself, Action Plan, Selection, and Expect the Best. By practicing these four simple steps any person can come from a sense of isolation and loneliness to a place of companionship and belonging.
